    this place prided itself on selling cheap booze -- trouble is, they were selling it to people (some…read moreof them were known trouble makers) until they were so drunk they were wandering home absolutely wasted out of their heads, wreaking havoc in the local community causing violent outbreaks and misusing emergency services. Now they are permanently closed down as of this week, according to a sign taped outside on the door. This is the best news the local community has had in decades.

    You've gotta feel sorry for the Waggon and 'Osses. This small, award-winning real-ale pub has…read morerecently suffered the ignomony of having a massive, million-pound costing Wetherspoons open next door to it. Not only that, the Wetherspoons is actually really good with the facilities, warmth and atmosphere completely lacking in other nearby pubs like The White Swan and The Junction. The Waggon though should be able to stand its ground a little as its typical of the old-school boozer that seasoned bar workers like myself and seasoned ale seekers like many I know are always happy to stumble across (or out of). It's indicative of the kind of pub it is that within 30 seconds of walking in and ordering a pint of Golden Glow, I found myself in a conversation with an old chap sat nearby about Salopian beers. As well as five real ales, they serve Carling, Fosters and Strongbow. There's no Guinness on tap but cans of it in the fridge. The toilets are located at the end of a dimly lit corridor and the place could maybe do with a spot of paint. Overall it's the kind of pub that has probably survived a long time on a good reputation. Now that the Wetherspoons have moved in next door, hopefully it won't try and rest on its laurels. It's the kind of place that's nice to go for a quiet pint with your mates or on your onesome but certainly not the kind of place to go on a date or in the hope of a wild night out.

    Realy nice (pub) : friendly and really great food Local…read moreco-workers reccomended to try west of Birmingham. Started with a soft drink on the outside patio, then went in for dinner. Of course had to have a local 1/2 pint of beer -very smooth ok by now you realize i am American, so you'll understand why i was not expecting an upscale restaurant labeled as a pub. Starters goat cheese for me and garlic prawns for my coworker. He had rump of lamb, i had wild trout. Came with platters of fries, potatoes au gratin and steamed veg. Mixed desserts 3 minis - tasty Service friendly and efficent. Highly recommended.

    Situated between Stourbridge and Bromsgrove in a leafy lane, this long-established pub is a magnet…read morefor folk seeking good beer and excellent food. The current management has boldly expanded the menu, opened for breakfast, provided access to its kitchen garden and detailed the provenance of all of its staple ingredients. Oh, that more places were like this. Whilst there are two car parks, they barely accommodate the number of drivers who patronise the establishment. The one at the front is backed by an attractive decked eating area. My most recent visit was for a light lunch with a colleague, so we each had a pint of Marston's Burton Bitter, and we had a crab and prawn sandwich and a Parma ham, and mozzarella sandwich, sharing a bow of chips between us. This light lunch was delicious, the service was good and the bill, including a large tomato juice, was £26.60. A firm favourite and we'll be back again.
